Vegan brunch paradise!…read more There are not a lot of places that offer a good vegan brunch but this place does it! They seated our group of 10 very quickly and the service was great. Our table ordered: Vegan omelette with tempeh - delish!

I have been wanting to go in there for a few weeks. Today, I decided I needed a muffin and maybe a…read morecup of coffee. Prices are comparable to other coffee shops, the cakes look amazing. I got a banana nut muffin and an orange cranberry. Do not waste your money: muffins from Costco and Walmart are way better. The banana nut one is is dry and tasteless. I am hoping the other one is a little better. For over $4 a pop, I expected quite a bit more flavor and less dryness. I'm giving 2 stars because the ambiance seemed nice and relaxed.

Stopped in on an early Sunday morning- the store front was tiny with no visible seating. They had a range of pastries in a bunch of interesting flavor combinations. I tried the miso caramel pecan cruffin ($7.50) sounded so interesting but unfortunately it was way too sweet and tasted stale (which is odd since I went early in the morning). I also got an iced matcha ($6 + $1 for oat milk) which tasted ok but nothing special. Overall, considering how pricey it ended up being I was pretty disappointed. I really wanted to love this place and applaud the attempt at unique flavors, but probably won't be coming back.

I love how it's decorated, the atmosphere and the layout with the booths and people vibing and enjoying their food. I want to come back and try other menu items.

For the first experience, I ordered two scoops of seasonal flavors - peppermint and biscoff cookie. Both were fine but I wish I had gotten peppermint and something chocolatey instead. I wouldn't say the quality of the flavors themselves was anything special. I think this store is better known for its unique ice cream floats and milkshakes. I look forward to coming back and trying some of those! The two employees were very knowledgable and patient when I asked lots of questions. I learned 20% of the proceeds go to the Best Buddies program!

After dinner one night, we walked around downtown Bethesda and happened upon Henry's Sweet Retreat…read more Luckily, we saved room for dessert, and Henry's hit the spot. We got a blueberry pop tart, and some raspberry scones, along with a chocolate covered vanilla cupcake. Yummy! The only problem is that Henry's is not just a dessert bakery - the store may appear tiny on the outside, but it's huge on the inside. In addition to the bakery, they got all kinds of candy and other goodies for sale. I gotta stop back in another day and try all the other good stuff inside. Plus, you can tell from the Rick Astley-inspired sign outside, Henry's has a great sense of humor. This is exactly what small business brings to the neighborhood. Stop by and visit Henry's Sweet Retreat - you'll be glad you did!

The small sundaes were huge! Kids could not finish them and at $7ish each hard to beat for the quality! I had an eggnog cupcake. I was not sure it would be good but whatever magic y'all put in it worked great together! The frosting was light and fluffy not too sweet not too bland. And the cake was moist, not crumbly, not heavy just perfect! Had a latte with soymilk because my belly does not care for milk in coffee. Local coffee company supplies the beans. They also have pretty much any kind of candy, pies, and sweets you might need and apparently they cater! Stop in you will not regret it...unless you do not like sweets and then I am sorry.

Red Velvet Cupcakery has redeemed themselves!!…read more I ordered a couple of southern belles (red velvet) and a couple of vanilla bean cupcakes to go...and they were amazing!!! I haven't patronized this store in years due to inconsistent quality in the past, but at the time of this recent review, Red Velvet Cupcakery is back on top! Truthfully, this is the only place that Ive enjoyed the red velvet flavor, and no one else in the area comes close to the way this shop creates their signature cupcake. Their other flavors are fantastic too..and you can taste the realness in their ingredients. Everything is always packaged neatly and sustainably..and the customer service (in the past) has always been kind and efficient. Highly recommend!

Reading the other reviews in recent times, I agree with the lack of presentation and taste of…read morecupcakes offered. I found Red Velvet Cupcakery through the Too Good to Go app that aims to cut down on food waste. The service offers discounted local area store food that otherwise goes to waste and also helps discover many small business restaurants. I am glad I purchased the cupcakes at a discounted price instead of $4/cupcake or $24+ tax. The cupcakes were underwhelming in presentation. The taste and texture wasn't exactly the best. Some of the cupcakes looked like someone else was about to eat it but changed their mind because the cupcake shell was peeled off. The white frosting was runny and tasted oddly sour. The bottom half of the cupcakes were very dry and stale. I ended up throwing away most of it. I get it that these cupcakes were meant to be thrown out or otherwise given away for free. I just didn't expect the items to taste accordingly. I have no idea how long ago these cupcakes were made despite the claim that it is baked fresh daily. Whatever the case is, I won't be returning and I wouldn't recommend it for my friends and family. There are so many other wonderful small business bakeries in the area with higher quality presentations and taste. Sad to say this wasn't it.

So, we randomly stopped here after leaving the zoo and had such a GREAT experience!…read more First, let's start with the fact that customer service is excellent here. From the warm greeting, to the thorough explanation behind given recommendations, and then to genuine good bye... this definitely allowed for exceptional introductory to Captain Cookie. To the cookies and the milkshake. The cookies were fresh, warm, moist, AND scrumptious. I had the double chocolate chip cookie, which generally isn't my go to, however, the staff's recommendation/explanation sold me on it. And, it was by far the best double chocolate chip cookie that I have had. Then I had the oatmeal chocolate chip which was simply perfect. I also sampled the cookies and cream milkshake which had the perfect thickness and the perfect amount milk and ice cream. If ever in the area, I would recommend everyone to try them out. When I'm back in the area, I know that I would for sure be stopping by.
